Wedding Dance Lessons For An Amazing First Dance

All wedding dance lessons are 90 minutes, so 1.5 hours. We feel this is the ideal lesson length because it allows time for your teacher to explain and answer all your questions, as you learn and practise the steps they create for you. Consequently, you will have a calm, effective learning experience, without feeling rushed or stressed. Also, if you need to take a short break, you can take a rest and reset, ready to go again! 

That’s OK! We are very happy to advise you and help you choose your first dance song. It’s a great idea to make a short list of songs you like, as this becomes the starting point to finding the song that’s perfect for you. Here are some ideas for First Dance Songs For Weddings and Unusual First Wedding Dance Songs.

We make it very easy to pay for your wedding dance lessons, accepting direct bank transfer, Visa, Mastercard, Google Pay and Apple Pay. Once you are happy with your schedule, we will send you an invoice. You’ll have three days to pay and once you do, your lessons are confirmed. We are proud to operate in this way, because we feel it’s important that the lesson schedule suits you, before you commit financially. Importantly, there are no hidden costs, we don’t charge extra for travel or VAT and we don’t require deposits.

If you both stretch your arms out to the side and turn on the spot without bumping into anything, you are marking out the minimum that we could work with. So, if your space is bigger than this, you have enough space! It’s roughly 3m x 3m. Of course, bigger is better, so we encourage you make your space as large as possible. For example, you could push back the furniture to maximise your homemade dance floor!

Are you surprised that you don’t need more room? Here’s an explanation… I’m sure you’ve seen the dancers on Strictly Come Dancing whoosh across the floor? Their costumes are light, and the dresses are never longer than ankle length. On the other hand, wedding dresses are floor length and often heavy, making it much more difficult to travel quickly across a dance floor. Therefore, this is why you don’t need as much space as you might expect to learn your first wedding dance.

That’s fine, as we can teach you somewhere else, such as a dance studio, function room, hall or leisure centre.

When you complete the Booking Form, we will ask whether you would like lessons at home or in a studio, as well as your address. Then, we can provide you with more precise information about space hire options in your local area, as they vary so much. For example, city locations are typically more expensive than rural locations. Also, halls are cheaper than dance studios.

Some of our teachers prefer to work from their own studios and these charges range from minimal to completely free of charge. Interestingly, if you are a gym member, it’s always a great idea to enquire about the studio space, as some gyms allow members to use it for free.

Also, when hiring space, you will probably be asked if the teacher has Public Liability Insurance, and the answer is always yes.

When you fill out the Booking Form, you’ll notice we ask when would be convenient for you. Weekdays, weekends, daytimes and evenings are all options, as is a mixture of these, as you don’t have to have classes on the same day each week. Then, according to your teacher’s availability, we will make suggestions for you to choose from. You can be confident that the schedule will suit your lifestyle and will fit around your commitments.

That’s fine! All we need it 48 hours’ notice and we can either re-arrange (if possible) or refund. To read more on this, here are the Terms & Conditions.

Around six weeks before your wedding day is ideal, although some couples chose to start earlier. It’s a personal choice that will depend on everything else you have going on. We feel that six weeks is long enough to learn and practice, because it allows plenty of time for the lessons, but it’s not so early that you’ll forget the steps before your wedding day! Also, it’s beneficial for the dance to be fresh in your mind, without having learnt so far in advance that you are bored of it by the time your big day arrives.

If you have less than 6 weeks to go, don’t worry, contact us we’ll see if we can work our magic. We once organised lessons for a couple 3 days before their wedding!

Ideally there will be 5-10 days between lessons, as hopefully it will allow you time to practise. For instance, if there’s a large gap between lessons, the momentum of learning can be a bit slow. However, if this is your only option don’t worry, as there are ways around it. For example, you could film yourself at the end of your previous lesson as a reminder should you forget anything.

Yes! We definitely can. Our wedding dance lessons are perfect for people who can’t dance, as we start from scratch, which is essential for beginners. Therefore, you will learn and develop one step at a time, at your own pace. Even if you have zero confidence and no rhythm, as long as you have some enthusiasm and the desire to learn, we’ll provide dancing lessons for wedding dance floor success!
